"You're not going to the imperial capital?!"

In the early morning, Nicole's high-pitched voice seemed to be able to pierce the sky, startling countless sleeping chicks, fluttering and flying into the sky, and the sky was reflecting the gorgeous morning glow. The pen and the fun and the www.biquge.info sunrise also spilled into the ground, illuminating half of Ian's face.

"No, I won't. Ian said as he gathered his things, "I have more places to go than the Imperial Capital now. ”

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to see the sea. Ian said, "Look at the endless sea. ”

"You, you're crazy, look at the sea, why did you suddenly become a bard? The goal of a bard is to go all over the world, you're a hunter. Nicole was a little incoherent as she had a vague sense that Ian was leaving her.

"I'm not a hunter anymore, at least not yet. Ian smiled as he carried the metal box containing the Musk Moon Goddess, the sunflowers on the metal box had been erased by him, so it looked like an ordinary suitcase.

Nicole felt a chord in her heart being shaken: "Why?"

Ian was silent.

It was late autumn, and the entire city of alchemy was plunged into a sea of orange, which was a patch of maple leaves, swaying in the breeze, like rolling waves. The wind was stronger, and some of the maple leaves were blown off, and they swirled and fell to the ground, on the heads of children, on the wagons of metal dealers, and on the roofs of houses.

At the same time, it also fell on the tombstone of the dead warrior.

There is also a maple tree in front of No. 47 Chengxi Lane, rustling in the breeze. The dazzling orange-red color was reflected in Ian's eyes with the glow.

"I'm too weak. Ian gave the reason.

"Weak?" Nicole's eyes widened, a hunter who had just shot the dragon king Naga would say that he was weak?

"Well, if, I mean, if I could be a little stronger, Eric wouldn't have died. Ian clenched his fists, "If it's a little stronger, it's really...... I've been dreaming of him for the past few days, and he seems to be waving his shield in front of me, telling me that he is the strongest hunter. ”

"Ian. Nicole said weakly, "That's not your fault. ”

"He's the strongest hunter, but I'm the one who survived. Ian whispered.

He survived in the Flowing Clouds, hundreds of thorns withered, in the snowy mountains, dozens of Crusaders were buried in the volcano forever, in the Lutheran Forest, Lucerne and Rowling also died, and this time in Tellmis, he survived, Eric, Div, and many, many others, and so many more died.

Every time, he survived and enjoyed everyone's efforts.

"Blood is a fuel, it can bring infinite vitality to the hunter, and it can also burn the hunter to the slag. ”

Ian recalled Luzon's words.

"So, are you going to give up?" Nicole's voice trembled a little, she couldn't imagine that this hunter who slayed dragons in the rainstorm and killed kings in volcanoes was going to give up?

"I don't know. Ian said softly, "My mind is a mess right now, it's not going to work." I've been thinking for the past few days that only someone as brave as Eric can be considered a true hunter. I didn't know if I could be a real hunter, so I wanted to find out. ”

"Where to look?"

"The sea. Ian replied, "My mother told me that the sea is the widest place, with its blue waters and endless skies. So I wanted to check it out. ”

"You're like a bard. ”

"If my parents hadn't died, maybe I would have become a bard. Ian chuckled, then looked at Nicole, "Goodbye, then." ”

Nicole's eyes were sour, and she couldn't hold back her tears: "Leaving so soon?"

"I can't wait. ”

"Will you ever come back?"

"If I find the answer, I'll come back. Ian said, "Maybe I'll come to you then." ”

"I'm waiting for you in the imperial capital, and you, who have been thinking about it for a long time, I'm afraid I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Ian was stunned and looked at Nicole incredulously.

Nicole smiled reluctantly: "It's called the Messiah, don't get me wrong, I don't want to know, if it weren't for the fact that you always like to talk in your dreams at night." ”

"Really?" Ian lowered his head and whispered, "Okay, goodbye." ”

Ian turned to leave, but Nicole stopped him again.

"No matter how guilty you feel about Eric's affair, I just want to tell you that you are a hero. ”

Ian shuddered, but said nothing more, and walked straight out of the wooden door. So he didn't see that Nicole was already full of tears, and Ian walked to the door and glanced slightly at the small line carved on the wooden door.

"This is Yilin's home, a man who will become an alchemy master in the future. ”

"Goodbye, father. Ian whispered, then gently closed the wooden door and walked onto the narrow, dirty, but sun-filled streets of the West Lane.

The residents of Alder, the city of alchemy, are still immersed in the emotions of grief and joy after the death of the Sunflower King a few days ago, and the return of the king-killing team of the king-killing team. There were still many mourning cloths on the streets, which had not faded, and were taken off by children, tied to their bodies, and running around the streets laughing, not understanding the meaning of this white cloth, nor what it meant to humans to hunt the dragon king. They just ran, running carefree, because in their eyes, it was still an ordinary and peaceful day.

It's just that the inhabitants of Alder don't know that the hunter who shot the dragon king, the hero in their hearts, has already set out on the road to find the sea alone in this ordinary and peaceful morning.

But not everyone is unaware that Xiu and Dennis are standing on the city wall, looking at the emaciated Ian, walking alone towards the east, facing the rising sun.

"He's going to go all the way to the sea?" Xiu looked at Ian's back incredulously, "No, I'll call a taxi for him." ”

"No need. Dennis stopped Xiu, "That's his choice." ”

"However, his current physical condition ......," Xiu said anxiously.

"Anyway, he's the one who shot the Dragon King. Dennis said softly, "Trust him, he has what it takes to solve everything." After all, the Dragon Emperor ten years ago didn't kill him. ”

"Do you really believe that he survived the Wandering Cloud Plague?"

"It's not a question of believing it or not, it's a fact that he survived there in the first place. Remembering the figure in the volcano, Dennis said, "He's really seen my brother, and his eyes tell me that he and my brother have the same hunter's instincts." ”
